Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of hotel kitchen floor structure, specifically a hotel kitchen floor structure without gutters. Background Technology

[0002] In hotel kitchen floor structures, existing technologies generally use a concrete slab as the base load-bearing layer, on which floor tiles are laid to form a decorative surface. An open drainage system is also integrated for sewage discharge. This drainage system is usually a trench directly cut into the concrete slab, with a large width and significant depth. Wastewater generated during kitchen operations is collected through the trench and guided to the external drainage network. This design is based on the principle of prioritizing functionality, can handle high-flow sewage and solid impurities, and meets the requirements of traditional building codes. It has been widely used in the industry for a long time.

[0003] However, existing drainage ditches are physically large, typically 10-20 cm wide and 5-10 cm deep, causing obvious interruptions in the floor decoration layer, damaging the overall aesthetics and visual continuity. Furthermore, oil stains, food residues, and other contaminants easily accumulate inside and around the ditches, requiring high-pressure water guns or chemical agents for cleaning and maintenance. This process is cumbersome and difficult to completely remove residues, increasing hygiene and safety hazards. At the same time, the height difference between the ditches and the surrounding ground often creates protrusions or depressions, hindering kitchen staff from walking steadily and easily causing tripping or slipping accidents, affecting work efficiency and safety. Utility Model Content

[0004] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides a drainage-free floor structure for hotel kitchens, which solves the problems of drainage ditches in hotel or restaurant kitchens being too large, affecting aesthetics, being difficult to clean, and hindering the movement of kitchen staff.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides a gutter-free floor structure for a hotel kitchen, comprising a concrete base slab and several floor tiles laid on the concrete base slab. The several floor tiles are combined to form a decorative layer. The left side wall and top wall of each floor tile are smoothly inclinedly connected to form a drainage surface, and the right side wall and bottom wall of each floor tile are smoothly inclinedly connected to form a shielding surface. The drainage surface of each floor tile is opposite to the shielding surface of the adjacent floor tile and is spaced to form a drainage gap for external sewage to drain in. The right side wall of each floor tile is provided with a sealing block for sealing the end opening of the adjacent drainage gap and cooperating with the drainage gap to form a drainage channel. The left side wall of each floor tile is provided with a connecting structure for linkage with the sealing block to stably connect two adjacent floor tiles. The several drainage channels on the same side are combined to form a drainage channel. The concrete base slab has an outlet channel for sewage from the drainage channel to drain out of the drainage channel at each drainage channel position.

[0006] The advantages of adopting the above technical solution are as follows: the arrangement of the drainage surface, shielding surface, and sealing block of the floor tiles in the above technology can produce a highly efficient drainage effect. Each floor tile forms a drainage gap through the drainage surface on its left side wall and the shielding surface on the right side wall of the adjacent floor tile, allowing sewage to flow naturally into the gap and into the drainage channel. The drainage channels are combined to form a drainage ditch and discharged centrally through the outlet channel of the concrete base plate, thereby achieving a drain-free design, reducing cleaning dead corners and improving hygiene. At the same time, the connecting structure ensures a stable connection between the floor tiles and enhances the overall structural durability. In addition, the drainage channel formed by the combination of the drainage surface and the shielding surface in the above technology can achieve a concealed drainage design, that is, improve the aesthetics of the kitchen floor without affecting the movement of kitchen staff. At the same time, the inclined drainage surface and shielding surface facilitate the rapid drainage and discharge of sewage into the drainage ditch, thereby improving drainage efficiency. The relative arrangement of the drainage surface and the shielding surface further improves the concealment of the drainage channel, thus achieving the goal of a drain-free design.

[0007] The present invention further comprises: a protruding part protruding on the left side wall of the floor tile; the drainage surface being connected to the top wall of the protruding part; the top wall of the protruding part, the side wall of the sealing block, and the drainage surface being combined to form a drainage trough; the bottom wall of the drainage ditch being composed of several top walls of the protruding parts located on the same side; and the bottom wall of the drainage ditch being inclined from top to bottom along the laying direction of the floor tiles located on the same side.

[0008] The advantages of adopting the above technical solution are: the combination of the top wall of the protrusion and the drainage surface to form a drainage channel and the inclined bottom wall of the drainage channel can guide water flow and prevent water accumulation. The top wall of the protrusion, as a component of the drainage channel, cooperates with the side wall of the sealing block to form a continuous channel. The inclined bottom wall of the drainage channel uses gravity to make the sewage flow quickly to the outlet channel, thereby improving drainage efficiency and reducing stagnation. At the same time, the protrusion enhances the structural strength of the floor tiles and avoids deformation or damage.

[0009] The present invention further comprises: the connecting structure including a connecting groove formed on the side wall of the protrusion and a connecting edge provided on the side wall of the sealing block; the two ends of the connecting groove extend through to the end walls of the two ends of the floor tile and form an insertion port for horizontal insertion of the connecting edge; polymer sealant is filled between the connecting groove and the connecting edge, and the polymer sealant is filled between the side wall of the sealing block and the side wall of the protrusion to achieve adhesive fit between the side wall of the sealing block and the side wall of the protrusion.

[0010] The advantages of adopting the above technical solution are: the connection groove and the connection edge are fitted together and filled with polymer sealant to produce a firm connection and a leak-proof effect. The connection edge is horizontally inserted into the connection groove and the gap is filled by polymer sealant to achieve the bonding and fixation of the sealing block and the protrusion, thereby enhancing the stability between floor tiles and preventing sewage leakage. At the same time, the polymer sealant provides elastic buffering, adapts to temperature changes and extends service life.

[0011] The present invention further includes the following feature: the floor tiles are bonded to the concrete base plate using a cement-based adhesive.

[0012] The advantages of adopting the above technical solution are: the cement-based adhesive bonding method can create a strong base layer and prevent displacement. The floor tiles are tightly bonded to the concrete base plate through the cement-based material, forming an integral structure that resists daily loads and vibrations, thereby preventing the floor tiles from loosening or misaligning, ensuring the long-term reliable operation of the drainage system. At the same time, the adhesive material fills the tiny gaps, preventing water seepage and protecting the integrity of the base layer.

[0013] The present invention further includes: the top wall of the floor tile is coated with an antibacterial coating made of an inorganic antibacterial agent.

[0014] The advantages of adopting the above technical solution are: the setting of the infinite antibacterial agent coating in the above technology can produce the effect of inhibiting bacterial growth and improving hygiene and safety. The antibacterial coating covers the top wall of the floor tiles and continuously kills common pathogens through chemical action, thereby reducing microbial contamination in the kitchen environment. Moreover, the coating is wear-resistant and corrosion-resistant, maintains long-term effectiveness without affecting drainage function, and meets food hygiene standards.

[0015] The present invention further includes: several floor tiles located at the edge of the decorative layer are provided with arc-shaped retaining edges for adhering to the bottom outer wall of the external wall, and the inner wall of the arc-shaped retaining edges is coated with a cement-based sealant for bonding with the external wall.

[0016] The advantages of adopting the above technical solution are: the combination of the arc-shaped edge and the cement-based sealant can seal the wall-floor joint and prevent dirt from entering. The arc-shaped edge is attached to the bottom of the wall and bonded by the cement-based sealant to form a smooth transition and seal the gap, thereby preventing sewage or debris from entering the wall base area, simplifying cleaning and maintenance and enhancing the overall aesthetics. At the same time, the sealant provides a waterproof barrier to protect the wall structure. Attached Figure Description
